Math Context Menu not showing up when clicking equation image on Wiki

more options

Firstly: Happy Christmas, everyone. And should we not type again in between now and next year: Happy New Year as well.

May all the best life can offer be on your path: True Health, True Peace, True Love, True Happiness and True Prosperity. Now and evermore.

And then some.  ;)


The issue: I am trying to copy an equation from Wiki. Normally, Firefox gives a Math Context Menu (Show Math As, Math settings, ... ), but lately this menu no longer pops up. As the equation is of substantial size, I am not looking forward to type it manually in Word ... .

Is there a way to regain this context menu?

Thank you. Sam

I only get images if I check a MathML formula in the Inspector and not a MathML rendering (i.e.I get an image context menu).

Are you logged in to the Wikipedia website in case this makes a difference ?

You need to provide the URL of what your trying to copy so others can replicate the issue or if there is no issue.

I used to have this context menu clicking these pictures, but no more?

Tried to troubleshoot the issue, even with a "safe mode" of my Firefox (V108.0.1), no luck ... .

Inspector does not provide the Math Context Menu information. I am trying to get the equations into my Word .DOCX as equation, but it comes out as rubbish. While with the Context Menu, it actually, when imported as LaTex, came out as the equation?

I fail to get how that context menu got killed off ... . Been a bit, though, that i used it.
